THE EEA OF EMBEZZLEMENT. We call attention to tbe following articl from the Ohio Slate Journal of Wednesday. 1 is Dai n full v evident that Bliss, Breslin, Gib Bon, Stone and Dorsey, Trearusers of State, da ar cf ring the past fifteen years, have saccesafully followed in the beaten path of public plunder The report of Hon. P. OJlia and lion. W II. Smith, it appears, was made early in June last, but, for some reason, has been suppress ed until the present time. We learn from a gentleman of Columbus that tbe publication of this report has created quite a sensation in that city, and that the ap pointment of a successor to Q. Volney Doraey is Icing act ivety canvassed. The duty of Governor Anderson is plain and unmistakable, as our "loyal" contempo rarv of tbe Slate Journal euegests, and that is the 'vacation of the office and a criminal pros ecution.' We respectfully suggest, however, that Dr G. Volney Dorsey should continue to make speeches from the eteps of the Capitol, wel, coming home the soldiers whom he has cbei ted, and continue to announce to them that he has been fighting rebels in the rear, while they have been fighting them in front. We patiently await the action of the Grand Jury of Franklin County. Below is the article from the Central Re publican organ, to wnicn we reter. it says, after speaking of the report : ' The allegations and expositions of this re port will astonish the public. It presents full balances on all tunds belonging to the folate and declares that no deficit exists in any fund ; but exposes the humiliating fact that the Treasurer of State has abused the trust repos ed in him bv the people of Ohio haa outrag ed the confidence of the party by wjiich he was chosen Treasurer, and has violated, the laws whicb he swore to obey when he entered upon the duties of office. These allegations are : "1. That by infeahs of a special coin deposit, somebody is making interest from, the money of tbe Mate. '2 That assets found in the Treasury were not of the character required by law '3. That large unauthorized balances have- been kept in the Ohio V alley Bank at Cincin nati. ... , 4. That Bartltt.& Smith, bankeW; Of Columbus, had-tii e use of $50,000 from the Treasury for one month, in lieu of which they were permitted -"to deposit even-thirty U.S bonds, upon; which they received the accruing mterest. - ' 5. That with the Franklin Bank jof Qo-J lunibus, a similar tran&actrotr-waa bsd upen bonds amounting to 911,900. , 6. That the Treasurer of btate removed for private use, $16,000 of the currency of the Treasnrv, in lieu of which he deposited Seven-thirty U. S. Bonds (6.000) and United States Certificates of Indebtedness, (lU,OOuj upon which he received the accruing interest. " . That improper use has been made of Uhited States securities belonging to soldiers, who received pay for U. S. service through the State Treasury. " Upon these allegations we (orbear to com ment. They do. not require it. No one of the many friends of the State Treasurer can regret their publication more eincerely, or witness it more painfully, than does the writer of thin article. ' The law, intended to provide" against pri vate use of public funds, in any manner what ever, under wincii tue p pec; a I examination or the State Treacury, made by 3Ir. Odiin, is au thorized, was enacted by the General Assem bly to which the J3reslin defalcation was reported. It is a severe, comprehensive, and carefully guarded etatuie. Its requirements are plain, and the penalty for their violatiou is vacation of office and criminal prosecution.' Loyal Candidates." . C. Devin, of Knox, the present Senator for this district, and B. C ty, have been nominated Brown of thtscoud by the atnalgama tion party for Senators. Mr. Devin is a man of small abilities and great pretentions. What he lacks in talent he makes up. in style, noise and wind. . lie is fully committed to all the heresies of the miscegenation party negro suffrage, military courts, military, elections, the Ohio militia law, the unjust and unequal system of taxation, etcJ Down at Columbus, he served for a laughing stock for all, and was & disgrace to the district. Mr. Brown is a gentleman, a good citizen, a man of ordinary good sense, a banker, a Government tax collector, has his wealth in government bonds which are exempt from tax ation. He is a good financier, else he would not have all his means in bonds -and compel the farmers, mechanics and manufacturers to pay his share of the taxation necessary to run the Government. Mr. Brown has probably $10,000 in government bonds, holds one office now, and who will say he will not be " well fixed" with $10,000 in cash, exempt from taxation, and two public offices I In politics Mr. B. is rather reserved. He figtfres an the sly and leaves others to do the talking. He is sublimely loyal j" never was in the army, but no doubt woald hate went bad he succeeded in getting cured of the ciles Shpposlag that he will take the stump to secure an election, we lake the liberty of asking him to define hia position on the following qnestions, which are the essence of the political campaign.

It becomes our unpleasant duty to record another scene fn the demoralizing drama of Pulpit Politics. A methodiat clergyman named Crisman, stationed in Linton tp., is the wolf in sheep's clothing who haB been devouring the lambs of his' flock. He was arabid abolitionist, in the pulpit and cut of it and his lying sermons had become so offensive as to drive away several of his congregation. He had not been long in the neigh borhoodbefore he planned the ruin of the wife of a tiiember of his church and Bought every pretest tb be in her company. He took especial pains to advocate the war, and to justify all its immoralities, efa-f ecially the violations Vf law, when it forbid the accomplishment of what he termed ' the right.' Having weakened the sanctify of law in the conscience of his victim, he instilled in to her niind the doctrines of the " Free Lov ers," and cited her to the evil practices of the ancients. In this way he corrupted her sense of delicacy, morality and virtue. After a while, he pretended to have a disease in the throat, o that he could not preach, and got another clergyman to fill his appointments. Then he went to the house of the unsuspecting member of his church, to help m harvest but. did not work in the field he hung around the house, helped milk the cows, -and did light work. His conduct soon caused whisperings in the neighborhood, and finally culmi nated in an elopement he deserting a wife and several children, and she a fond and too inuuigent nusoana Dringing stiame ana misr t - i t . . .. ery upon two families, and scandal on the church. How often need the press warn the people against the wiles of these infidel fiends. abolition preachers ? Whenever a "preacher begins to talk politics at the fireside, in . his pravers, or in his sermons, the women should egg him from their doors, and the men drag him from the pulpit. They are the false teachers the wolves in sheep's clothing, against whom the Bible So often and so plainly warns the churches. Coshocton Democrat. : The Holmes and Knox District. Hon. Lyman R.

While General Cox was addressing the 'Saints' at Oberlin a few days ago, a negro named Hall, arose and asked the following question: " I want to ask Mr. Cox if he is elected Governor of Ohio, will he be in favor of be stowing upon the colored men of this State saying nothing about what he will do for those in the Sonth the right of suffrage." To this question the Statu Journal's report says : General Cox replied that he had stated his own plan and mode of solving the difficulty. He believed the question must be decided for the Black men as a unit, and that the duty of the colored man here was to unite his destiny with those of the South. That if the question had to be determined by each State for itself, and (he North for itself, his determination would be here for the full application of the rights of man which he had described."What does this mean, if it does" not mean that he is in favor of negro-suffrage ? How it Works. Mr. A. was a soldier who served three years in the army. He has a small property worth $500. The local and State tax upon this is about 2 percent., or $10. Mr. Brown did not go into the war. He is a wealthy man, staid at home and put $10,-in Government bonds, upon which there is, under Republican policy, no State dV local taxation. His taxes would be $200 if he paid at the same rate of the brave soldier. But he is a member of a- wealthy privileged class, who are taxed uotbing for the protection of their lives, liberty and property. The soldier has to bear the burdens that should properly be put on. both him and Mr. Brown. Is this right If so, Mr. Brown should he elected to the Senate, where he can make laws to still further benefit the privileged nabobs at the expense of the oppressed paat.-rllolMei Farther "' '''" ' Efieet of Ohseene Literature.

But- when in the OiD.be fdtlnd himself surrounded by - four times his ntimbes of rebels, and. no 'prospect of obtain ing supplies except by seizing, them from the enemv. In that war he obtained food and forage: he attacked the rebels, beat them here and there, and took what he needed. But it tfa5 impossible to hold the position against such odds; and to retreat or surrender was all that was left hira. To Surrender was not thought of by one who commenced military life at fifteeti,- and had been trained first by Sam Houston in Texas to the half Indian modes of fighting, and afterward by Gen, Scott in Mexico, In the highest science of war; and so the retreat was eommerlded. Every man and every gun : was withdrawn. Then came the tug of war this handful) .of men retreating and fighting surrounded and followed by 45,000 men for sixteen day and nights, cfver 250 miles of mountainous region, through defiles and gorges, every where exposed to ambuscades and assaults tn mountain passes, subsisting on corn alone, and stll - repulsing and beating the lurking rebels in every attack! We have many bright pages in the. history of tbe late war--pages, to which our children will turn with pride and the .world will, read with wonder; but we doubt whether there was a more brilliant schier merit from the fall of Sumpterto the fall of Richmond,-than the re-treat of Morgan, and his ten thousand from Cumberland Gap.

L.Baik.Bm:.-.- ; 0;C.;::--;' Dear Jr Having many letters bf inquiry from Old Knox to answer, I have thought the nearest road to all would be aletter through the Bannkk. Some require a des' cription of the country, some the price of land, some of the crops, , market prices, &c, and some inquiry is made about the politics of the Country. To these inquiries, with your permission, I shall answer so far as I can satisfactorily,1 and which, I hope, may prbve satisfactory to your readers. A full description of this country in one let. ter would be too tedious. In my estimation, the: country is beautiful, and the location healthful. In this immediate locality the lands generally drain well and are susceptible of still better drainage by ditcoihg, which has been practiced to a considerable extent. This is an old settlement, fruit of all kinds being as plenty as in old Knox, hut I think of a better quality. Peaches will be plenty this year, hilt apples rather scarce. Timber is plenty, and is growing plentier every year, and plfenty of coal mines are con venierlt; ' The edit is everlasting, and produces year after year without manor ing. Improved lands rate from 30 to 40 dollars per acre, according to locality and improvements. I know of some choice bargains, however, at 22 to 25 dollars per acre. Those who will apply soonest this fall will he best suited. Wheat, rye and oats are heavy crops. but have not been saved well, on account of the wet weather. The caps and outside sheaves of much of it Was left ia the field. Most of the corn on this prairie looks well, but on the flatter lands bf the county it is, as the saying is, gone under, ilu&dfeds of acres layifcg between Carthage and Keokiik river, never had a plough in it since it was planted, consequently it is under water and weeds both. . This is the wet season, which comes every seven: years, and the farmers prepare for it. Corn will be plenty after all, provided the wea ther does not clear up with a frosty so as to cut off the new crop. We can stand mere wet weather here than you can in most of Knox county. It may rain a week here, but a day or two of dry weather we can start the plough thejroads will also dry up in that tittle;' At this date T am not well posted in regartirto market prices. Corn I will say ia from 38 to 40 cents on the road, with an upward tenden cy. Wheat was down to a dollar, but haa. ta ken big rise lately. Verbal reports are con flicting some say it is up to to two dollars ; others oaly 140 per bushel. Fat hogs I be lieve are worth 8 cents and upwards. . ; Stock iwgstra-aaarew ert$ 1 7y 1 4 nt knowtbjt price of beef on foot.' It retails from 5 to lOct per lb. in the country. : . ' - W have watted up to this time to cut our xneadows. We thought the weather was get- tiag right for that business a few days ago, and the mowing machines started in almost every meadow I. had three running in mine last Friday, but the hay is standing bunched up in the meadow (all except 8 or 10 ton) under another drenching rain, and so it is that all our crops must take a share of rain. Good hay is worth from 8 to 10 dollars per ton, but none is. bought at this season of the year save by packers. ..The outside range feeds hones, colts, cattle and sheep, there being thousands and thousands of acres f such range and the befit Of pasture. The politics of this' county (Hancock), are purely Democratic. In times of fair elections the Democracy carry the county by 500 major ity; but by the use of fraud and force it was cut down last fall to 350. -Let me relate an anecdote arising from a plot schemed by the Abolitionists' td cheat the Democracy otft bf their election. The Union League (as they term themselves) canvassed the county, and found the majority to be as above stated. This" was reported to Camp Butler, at Springfield, where the men were encamped froth this county, and enough of Pepublican eoldiers to' change this majority received furloughs tb come home to vote. No Democrats received a furlough except a few who smelt a mice and reported tnemseives itepubiicans. - xne care arrived at Camp Point in the evening, where the change is made to the Carthage road, but on starting from there the engiheer discovered Some bad "break about the engine and com menced tinkering, and tinkered on until after 6 o'clock, before he got ready to start. The furlough ed soldier voters, believing the election closed by this time, took the cars on the back track for caoip, and thnls the Democracy were left in possession of the field, and carried the county by a majority. - - I think the course c'f the 'Iannis is right &a the nigger and tax questions. Equal laws and equal. taxation, 'was a principle bought by the; blood of our forefathers, and should never be" yielded up under any plea. The plea of " necessity," is the plea' of despots and tyrants and should have no lengthy existence the longer the worse, and the harder to throw off. We want no privileged orders in America a nobility a few moniedmen, who o wn the government, who pay no tax, but draw' their living from the government in the Bhape of interest. These 7-30 : bonds establish that very principle thus making hewers of 0"bd and dra wers of water of the laboring man . Labor must pay their, tax, -labor must pay their interest, and finally the principal of the war debt, and the only argument" ia ' favor of relieving the rich riatf fffirrff hli share of the debt is ns- eessity..

Plain Dealer. . . Increase of Vice and Crime. The very foundations of morality and virtue seem to be broken up and our country to day presents a most fearful apectacle onefull of sorrow for all who love the good aud hate the evil. All the vices known to society are having a rapid growth, crimes of every decrlpt!dn are daily, if not hourly perpetrated. This is doubtless partly owingjjto the evityendencies of war, but we believe it is mainly clfhrgeable to the baie corruption that has been cotinte'nan-need, encouraged, and indulged in by men occupying high official positions in the Government.

It stpeara that a- bout a week ago Bridget was arrested on a charge of petit larceny and committed to the Tombs; for trial : Che was confined in that portion of the prison known as the Magdaleri: where all vdiing gir's are imprisoned. At a- bout four o'clock on Sunday afternoa'n.'Bridjs get forced off the damper off the grate used. for heating the room in which she was confined: - and by this means gained access to the chim-' ney, up which she cum oed and got out-on the roof. She then jumped down on thfi roof of the rnaln roofr and thence a distance of ten feet to the roof of the old station house fronts ing on Franklin Btreet, and which is now used for the accommodation often days" prisoners. Bridget then crawled along the west end of the roof, and soon gained the top of the outer wall surrounding the "prison.' --Here to gain the street it was necessary for her td leap down a. distance of over-thirty feet. Unhesitatingly the daring girl jumped over the wall, and lan-: ded on the grass plot, inside the iron railings without sustaining ariy . injuries. She then scaled the fence, and ran -off; and thus made her escape unobserved by any of the officers' of the prisonl Her escape was soon after dla-cAvettd.anCfhearing little. girLwaa subsequently found 'oncealad uider'ar -bed- fna!"' house in Jackson -Btreet, where she had taker! . refuge. She, was discovered and .arrested by Mr. JamesFinJey, the prison Clerk, who took her back to tbe Tombs and locked her up in it-secure cell. . It ia stated that a short time ago Bridget while confined in a house -against her will, made her way to the roof of the premises, and jumped off td the sidewalk below, a distance of four Stories, and escaped with some" slight injuries".

THE EEA OF EMBEZZLEMENT. We call attention to tbe following articl from the Ohio Slate Journal of Wednesday. 1 is Dai n full v evident that Bliss, Breslin, Gib Bon, Stone and Dorsey, Trearusers of State, da ar cf ring the past fifteen years, have saccesafully followed in the beaten path of public plunder The report of Hon. P. OJlia and lion. W II. Smith, it appears, was made early in June last, but, for some reason, has been suppress ed until the present time. We learn from a gentleman of Columbus that tbe publication of this report has created quite a sensation in that city, and that the ap pointment of a successor to Q. Volney Doraey is Icing act ivety canvassed. The duty of Governor Anderson is plain and unmistakable, as our "loyal" contempo rarv of tbe Slate Journal euegests, and that is the 'vacation of the office and a criminal pros ecution.' We respectfully suggest, however, that Dr G. Volney Dorsey should continue to make speeches from the eteps of the Capitol, wel, coming home the soldiers whom he has cbei ted, and continue to announce to them that he has been fighting rebels in the rear, while they have been fighting them in front. We patiently await the action of the Grand Jury of Franklin County. Below is the article from the Central Re publican organ, to wnicn we reter. it says, after speaking of the report : ' The allegations and expositions of this re port will astonish the public. It presents full balances on all tunds belonging to the folate and declares that no deficit exists in any fund ; but exposes the humiliating fact that the Treasurer of State has abused the trust repos ed in him bv the people of Ohio haa outrag ed the confidence of the party by wjiich he was chosen Treasurer, and has violated, the laws whicb he swore to obey when he entered upon the duties of office. These allegations are : "1. That by infeahs of a special coin deposit, somebody is making interest from, the money of tbe Mate. '2 That assets found in the Treasury were not of the character required by law '3. That large unauthorized balances have- been kept in the Ohio V alley Bank at Cincin nati. ... , 4. That Bartltt.& Smith, bankeW; Of Columbus, had-tii e use of $50,000 from the Treasury for one month, in lieu of which they were permitted -"to deposit even-thirty U.S bonds, upon; which they received the accruing mterest. - ' 5. That with the Franklin Bank jof Qo-J lunibus, a similar tran&actrotr-waa bsd upen bonds amounting to 911,900. , 6. That the Treasurer of btate removed for private use, $16,000 of the currency of the Treasnrv, in lieu of which he deposited Seven-thirty U. S. Bonds (6.000) and United States Certificates of Indebtedness, (lU,OOuj upon which he received the accruing interest. " . That improper use has been made of Uhited States securities belonging to soldiers, who received pay for U. S. service through the State Treasury. " Upon these allegations we (orbear to com ment. They do. not require it. No one of the many friends of the State Treasurer can regret their publication more eincerely, or witness it more painfully, than does the writer of thin article. ' The law, intended to provide" against pri vate use of public funds, in any manner what ever, under wincii tue p pec; a I examination or the State Treacury, made by 3Ir. Odiin, is au thorized, was enacted by the General Assem bly to which the J3reslin defalcation was reported. It is a severe, comprehensive, and carefully guarded etatuie. Its requirements are plain, and the penalty for their violatiou is vacation of office and criminal prosecution.' Loyal Candidates." . C. Devin, of Knox, the present Senator for this district, and B. C ty, have been nominated Brown of thtscoud by the atnalgama tion party for Senators. Mr. Devin is a man of small abilities and great pretentions. What he lacks in talent he makes up. in style, noise and wind. . lie is fully committed to all the heresies of the miscegenation party negro suffrage, military courts, military, elections, the Ohio militia law, the unjust and unequal system of taxation, etcJ Down at Columbus, he served for a laughing stock for all, and was & disgrace to the district. Mr. Brown is a gentleman, a good citizen, a man of ordinary good sense, a banker, a Government tax collector, has his wealth in government bonds which are exempt from tax ation. He is a good financier, else he would not have all his means in bonds -and compel the farmers, mechanics and manufacturers to pay his share of the taxation necessary to run the Government. Mr. Brown has probably $10,000 in government bonds, holds one office now, and who will say he will not be " well fixed" with $10,000 in cash, exempt from taxation, and two public offices I In politics Mr. B. is rather reserved. He figtfres an the sly and leaves others to do the talking. He is sublimely loyal j" never was in the army, but no doubt woald hate went bad he succeeded in getting cured of the ciles Shpposlag that he will take the stump to secure an election, we lake the liberty of asking him to define hia position on the following qnestions, which are the essence of the political campaign.

A methodiat clergyman named Crisman, stationed in Linton tp., is the wolf in sheep's clothing who haB been devouring the lambs of his' flock. He was arabid abolitionist, in the pulpit and cut of it and his lying sermons had become so offensive as to drive away several of his congregation. He had not been long in the neigh borhoodbefore he planned the ruin of the wife of a tiiember of his church and Bought every pretest tb be in her company. He took especial pains to advocate the war, and to justify all its immoralities, efa-f ecially the violations Vf law, when it forbid the accomplishment of what he termed ' the right.' Having weakened the sanctify of law in the conscience of his victim, he instilled in to her niind the doctrines of the " Free Lov ers," and cited her to the evil practices of the ancients. In this way he corrupted her sense of delicacy, morality and virtue. After a while, he pretended to have a disease in the throat, o that he could not preach, and got another clergyman to fill his appointments. Then he went to the house of the unsuspecting member of his church, to help m harvest but. did not work in the field he hung around the house, helped milk the cows, -and did light work. His conduct soon caused whisperings in the neighborhood, and finally culmi nated in an elopement he deserting a wife and several children, and she a fond and too inuuigent nusoana Dringing stiame ana misr t - i t . . .. ery upon two families, and scandal on the church.

They are the false teachers the wolves in sheep's clothing, against whom the Bible So often and so plainly warns the churches. Coshocton Democrat. : The Holmes and Knox District. Hon. Lyman R.

While General Cox was addressing the 'Saints' at Oberlin a few days ago, a negro named Hall, arose and asked the following question: " I want to ask Mr. Cox if he is elected Governor of Ohio, will he be in favor of be stowing upon the colored men of this State saying nothing about what he will do for those in the Sonth the right of suffrage." To this question the Statu Journal's report says : General Cox replied that he had stated his own plan and mode of solving the difficulty. He believed the question must be decided for the Black men as a unit, and that the duty of the colored man here was to unite his destiny with those of the South. That if the question had to be determined by each State for itself, and (he North for itself, his determination would be here for the full application of the rights of man which he had described."What does this mean, if it does" not mean that he is in favor of negro-suffrage ? How it Works. Mr. A. was a soldier who served three years in the army. He has a small property worth $500. The local and State tax upon this is about 2 percent., or $10. Mr. Brown did not go into the war. He is a wealthy man, staid at home and put $10,-in Government bonds, upon which there is, under Republican policy, no State dV local taxation. His taxes would be $200 if he paid at the same rate of the brave soldier. But he is a member of a- wealthy privileged class, who are taxed uotbing for the protection of their lives, liberty and property. The soldier has to bear the burdens that should properly be put on. both him and Mr. Brown. Is this right If so, Mr. Brown should he elected to the Senate, where he can make laws to still further benefit the privileged nabobs at the expense of the oppressed paat.-rllolMei Farther "' '''" ' Efieet of Ohseene Literature.

But- when in the OiD.be fdtlnd himself surrounded by - four times his ntimbes of rebels, and. no 'prospect of obtain ing supplies except by seizing, them from the enemv. In that war he obtained food and forage: he attacked the rebels, beat them here and there, and took what he needed. But it tfa5 impossible to hold the position against such odds; and to retreat or surrender was all that was left hira. To Surrender was not thought of by one who commenced military life at fifteeti,- and had been trained first by Sam Houston in Texas to the half Indian modes of fighting, and afterward by Gen, Scott in Mexico, In the highest science of war; and so the retreat was eommerlded. Every man and every gun : was withdrawn. Then came the tug of war this handful) .of men retreating and fighting surrounded and followed by 45,000 men for sixteen day and nights, cfver 250 miles of mountainous region, through defiles and gorges, every where exposed to ambuscades and assaults tn mountain passes, subsisting on corn alone, and stll - repulsing and beating the lurking rebels in every attack! We have many bright pages in the. history of tbe late war--pages, to which our children will turn with pride and the .world will, read with wonder; but we doubt whether there was a more brilliant schier merit from the fall of Sumpterto the fall of Richmond,-than the re-treat of Morgan, and his ten thousand from Cumberland Gap.

L.Baik.Bm:.-.- ; 0;C.;::--;' Dear Jr Having many letters bf inquiry from Old Knox to answer, I have thought the nearest road to all would be aletter through the Bannkk. Some require a des' cription of the country, some the price of land, some of the crops, , market prices, &c, and some inquiry is made about the politics of the Country. To these inquiries, with your permission, I shall answer so far as I can satisfactorily,1 and which, I hope, may prbve satisfactory to your readers. A full description of this country in one let. ter would be too tedious. In my estimation, the: country is beautiful, and the location healthful. In this immediate locality the lands generally drain well and are susceptible of still better drainage by ditcoihg, which has been practiced to a considerable extent. This is an old settlement, fruit of all kinds being as plenty as in old Knox, hut I think of a better quality. Peaches will be plenty this year, hilt apples rather scarce. Timber is plenty, and is growing plentier every year, and plfenty of coal mines are con venierlt; ' The edit is everlasting, and produces year after year without manor ing. Improved lands rate from 30 to 40 dollars per acre, according to locality and improvements. I know of some choice bargains, however, at 22 to 25 dollars per acre. Those who will apply soonest this fall will he best suited. Wheat, rye and oats are heavy crops. but have not been saved well, on account of the wet weather. The caps and outside sheaves of much of it Was left ia the field. Most of the corn on this prairie looks well, but on the flatter lands bf the county it is, as the saying is, gone under, ilu&dfeds of acres layifcg between Carthage and Keokiik river, never had a plough in it since it was planted, consequently it is under water and weeds both. . This is the wet season, which comes every seven: years, and the farmers prepare for it. Corn will be plenty after all, provided the wea ther does not clear up with a frosty so as to cut off the new crop. We can stand mere wet weather here than you can in most of Knox county. It may rain a week here, but a day or two of dry weather we can start the plough thejroads will also dry up in that tittle;' At this date T am not well posted in regartirto market prices. Corn I will say ia from 38 to 40 cents on the road, with an upward tenden cy. Wheat was down to a dollar, but haa. ta ken big rise lately. Verbal reports are con flicting some say it is up to to two dollars ; others oaly 140 per bushel. Fat hogs I be lieve are worth 8 cents and upwards. . ; Stock iwgstra-aaarew ert$ 1 7y 1 4 nt knowtbjt price of beef on foot.' It retails from 5 to lOct per lb. in the country. : . ' - W have watted up to this time to cut our xneadows. We thought the weather was get- tiag right for that business a few days ago, and the mowing machines started in almost every meadow I. had three running in mine last Friday, but the hay is standing bunched up in the meadow (all except 8 or 10 ton) under another drenching rain, and so it is that all our crops must take a share of rain. Good hay is worth from 8 to 10 dollars per ton, but none is. bought at this season of the year save by packers. ..The outside range feeds hones, colts, cattle and sheep, there being thousands and thousands of acres f such range and the befit Of pasture. The politics of this' county (Hancock), are purely Democratic. In times of fair elections the Democracy carry the county by 500 major ity; but by the use of fraud and force it was cut down last fall to 350. -Let me relate an anecdote arising from a plot schemed by the Abolitionists' td cheat the Democracy otft bf their election. The Union League (as they term themselves) canvassed the county, and found the majority to be as above stated. This" was reported to Camp Butler, at Springfield, where the men were encamped froth this county, and enough of Pepublican eoldiers to' change this majority received furloughs tb come home to vote. No Democrats received a furlough except a few who smelt a mice and reported tnemseives itepubiicans. - xne care arrived at Camp Point in the evening, where the change is made to the Carthage road, but on starting from there the engiheer discovered Some bad "break about the engine and com menced tinkering, and tinkered on until after 6 o'clock, before he got ready to start. The furlough ed soldier voters, believing the election closed by this time, took the cars on the back track for caoip, and thnls the Democracy were left in possession of the field, and carried the county by a majority. - - I think the course c'f the 'Iannis is right &a the nigger and tax questions. Equal laws and equal. taxation, 'was a principle bought by the; blood of our forefathers, and should never be" yielded up under any plea. The plea of " necessity," is the plea' of despots and tyrants and should have no lengthy existence the longer the worse, and the harder to throw off.
